I'm guessing if he almost made it from this year's training camp... Yeah.

I think the kid would be better off playing a year in Grand Rapids. He's young..why rush him? The AHL will stll be a big step up for him, so it's not like his game will go stale. With recent comments by Wings management saying that they aren't going to rush Jimmy Howard, I think they should take that into consideration with Kindl.

he is likley to anquer our defence in the future and since he came very close last year they will almost certainly put him right to the wings, its not really rushing them since most first rounders make the team after 2-3 years of being drafted

"Kitchener veteran defenceman Jakub Kindl was kicked out of the game and assessed a major penalty for a head check on London's Robbie Drummond late in the second period. The knights captain was down for a couple of minutes and left the game. A rare catalyst - London forward Sergei Kostitsyn - started some early fireworks when he hoped off the London bench a little early on a change and put his shoulder into unsuspecting Kitchener forward Steve Downie(Philidelphia first rounder) late in the first period. The jolt disengaged the volatile Canadian world junior star's visor from his helmet and left him writhing on the ice, which compelled Kindl - another unlikely combatant - to go after Kostitsyn. London was assessed a too-many-men penalty on the play, but it was negated when Downie, back from helmet repairs and obviously anxious to make the Kinghts pay for the transgression, forgot to do up his chin strap before returning to th ice. He was whistled for illegal equipment and Meckler scored on the ensuing powerplay to give the Knights the early lead."

I got that out of "The London Free Press"

Kitchener lost 4 to 3 in a shootout.

Its nice to see Kindl stick up for his teamates... everyone knows how much we need that on the Wings.

Wow interesting stuff, and IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m certainly not too disappointed with his actions. HeÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s been criticized for his lack of physical play on a few occasions so itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s good to see heÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s willing to be aggressive out there.

i just watched him play against Windsor and i was very impressed he played a great game

Yeah, I was at the game too.

Kindl must've played at least half the game last night. Not only was he out there every other shift, but on a number of occasions he played the entire duration of two minute power-plays. He just doesn't seem to get tired; his skating reminds me of Nick Lidstrom just a little bit.

The Hockey News just released their annual prospects issue, which listed Kindl as the top prospect in our system, and the 25th best prospect in the league. He's certainly made improvements from last season.

I personally would like to take him along slowly, but Jakub should probably at least get an oppurtunity to make the Wings next season.

I watched a bit of this game in while channel surfing. In the game Kindl was a man amongst boys. His passes were tape to tape, he anchored the PP, and even when he got hit in the defensive the Windsor player often 'bounced' off him. Also he had a nice rush where he split the two Windsor D and got a glorious scoring chance.

Man where do you live that you can see a game like this by channel surfing. I envy you sir.

Tootoo does NOT belong on this team. He is classless and I would rather see the Wings be bad than classless. I feel the same way about Bertuzzi as well, but he at least CAN make the team better. With Tootoo the team becomes worse and in danger of being classless. Would you have liked Claude on the team? Or Roy? No. So why would you be okay with that POS.

See that is why I need someone to sponser me into Canadian citzenship. America sucks for Hockey Fans.

Very little hockey outside of our Wings and while TSN was announcing the Bertuzzi trade, ESPN News was talking to John Elway and Jon Bon Jovi about the start of Arena League Football.

Sigh....
